essie Nail Polish, Never Basic, coral, 0.46 fl oz Bottle

I always try and get this nail polish but it's mostly sold out where I am sadly but when I do get the chance of buying it, it's such a great nail polish brand and fast drying. It does chip a teeny tiny bit if you don't use clear top coat afterwards but stays pretty good on nails without it as well.

Great, I use with Sally Hansen top coat/base. Trick is to let each layer completely dry before putting on the next and your DIY mani will look amazing without bubbles. Lasts me a week or longer which is reallyyy impressive for me because I am rough on my hands/always washing my hands too. Lady like was a perfect neutral for my light-medium skin tone (NC25/NC26 in MAC for reference)

This is by far my fav nude. It has a classic tone n a lil brown shimmer to it almost like a bronzer. I'm very picky with nudes this one is iconic n goes well with all skin tones and great with any outfit ! Reminds me of 70s or even 80s but not dated at all. If ur unsure nudes will look granny like this one is modern all the way I actually found on sale n stocked up bc I hope to have it always in my collection

Essie is such a great brand! Even though I've tried other brands, I return to Essie again and again. It is lower odor than almost every other brand. The color looks good and the finish is long-lasting.

So far so good! Received on time today. After spa pedicure had this applied. Dried reasonably quick enough to put my sandals back on. Lovely dark berry color. Just the shade that I was looking for and great shine. No top coat needed so far.. Now to see how long it lasts. Love it!

I really like Essie's formula. This nail polish applies so smoothly and evenly. One of the secrets is in the brush. Perfect size and thickness makes application a breeze. Quick drying and lasts for so long. The real star of this review is the color "Mindful Meditation". I am not a deep color or red polish girl and prefer lighter colors but not bright pastels like blue, yellow, green or orange. This is the best color I have ever found. Looks clean and elegant with a beautiful shine for every day or special occasion. Highly recommend.

I love this stunning navy blue. The formula is easy to use and I think one can even pull off just wearing one coat. It goes on glossy and when the sunlight hits it this beautiful subtle shimmer appears.

My boyfriend purchased this nail polish for me as I absolutely adore Essie polishes and all things purple. I was very happy about the color of the product and couldn't wait to try it on. I am a loyal Essie customer and can attest to the fact that this polish was harder to apply than other Essie polishes. The texture of the polish is a gloppy and as other users have found, it seems to dry on the brush and on your nail before I've even applied a full coat. As a result, I needed multiple THICK coats to cover my nail and I had to fix multiple bald/thin patches as the brush seems to drag the gloppy polish through the first couple applications. Overall, the color is really beautiful and after taking a bit more time to touch up the imperfections I am happy with my nails but after seeing how poor the formula for this polish is I will probably only use it to create special designs and nail art on my nails as I don't think it is suitable for typica/regularl wear.

This was the most expensive nail polish I've ever bought so I am super disappointed in its quality. I absolutely love the color. It's a very reddish purple almost black. It looks super slick and shiny. I loved how thick the brush is it holds a lot of polish. It feels high-quality going on. And once they dry, they look amazing. But within 24 hours, I had so much where on each nail. I don't think I've ever had a nail polish have wear in one day.

I saw this color swatched on a nail blog and even though the nail artist mentioned it wasn't a great formula, I bought it anyway. There is no doubt that it is a ridiculously beautiful color but the formula is pretty terrible. Needs multiple coats and I already know that it will be too thick to use within a few weeks. I usually love Essie and I have so many of them but buying this one was a mistake.
